Remaining Pre Season fixtures

Sunday 7th August Home against Espanyol

[ERIMUS]

Malcolm Christie out for a month due to leg surgery.

[gaijin]

We were shite by all accounts, but Atletico are a class act.

With the likes of Torres, Petrov, Maxi, Kezman etc - they will be top 4 in Spain no doubt.

And let's get rid of Ugo please, the defence is starting to come apart.

[ERIMUS]

Boro 1-0 Espanyol

Jimmy with the goal, Yakubu looking very lively and Maccarone making his come back

Boro: Schwarzer; Reiziger, Southgate (Capt.) (McMahon 46), Bates, Queudrue, Mendieta (Morrison, 46), Parlour, Boateng, Downing (Maccarone 79), Viduka (Hasselbaink 46), Yakubu. Unused subs: Jones (gk); Wheater, Doriva, Kennedy, Johnson, Nemeth.

Looks like up front is looking shameful...

2 Goals in 4 Preseason games???

As far as Ehiogu, he's been useless for ages!

[ERIMUS]

Our defence is looking uneasy...

Parnaby is out with a knee injury, Ehiogu picked up a knock against Madrid and Southgate went off early yesterday and Riggott has only played 1 game this pre-season.

[ERIMUS]

For Liverpool id like to see...

...................Schwarzer
McMahon Riggott Southgate Queudrue
Morrison Mendieta Boateng Downing
................JFH Yakubu

Subs:
Viduka
Doriva
Jones
Ehiogu
Nemeth

[gaijin]

I think I may......I repeat with some slight caution that I may go to this game.

I think PSG v Toulouse will have to wait - I'll go and seem them play Nice instead. :cool:

Head says 1-1. Heart says 1-0 Boro win.

Is the Morrison kid any good? I have heard alot about him.

[ERIMUS]

Is the Morrison kid any good? I have heard alot about him.

For a young right winger, he is VERY good although i think he cant cope with a full season just yet.

[gaijin]

Morrison is still raw, but is a very bright talent.

[Val1]

So, any injury news for the squad?

I'm hoping to be able to see Yakabu and JFH at the same time. This game will be shown on FSC stateside, so I'm getting a good opening weekend.

Plus, should be a good opening test, since most Pool fans seem to think they'll be top 4 this year.

Also, probably time to start a new 2005-2006 match thread.

[2-8-0]

Condolences to the teesiders. I'm sure Boro would bounce back after such a huge thrashing. Stay cool :)

[ERIMUS]

tit.

[gaijin]

What thrasing?

Did I miss something?
